Funny you say that. Everyone I tell the concept to thinks it's terrifying.

AKA only one guy on that boat was screwed.

I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the questions I want to ask. I am obsessed with this film, and knowing I have it's creator here is making me feel like a kid in a candy store.

So obviously, I LOVED It Follows. I really cannot think of a better concept for a horror movie. It seems like a campfire story a bunch of kids made up, and I REALLY mean that in a good way. Campfire stories have that way of making us have that level of fear you feel as a child that your adult self never quite reaches. There's just something about the main creature that probes into a deep fear, that "It's out there somewhere" feeling that you can never shake. The fact that it ALWAYS knows where you are and is headed there right now. It just makes you think. What if you were stepping out of the shower and heard it breaking through your front door? What if you heard it marching up the stairs towards your bedroom? What does it DO to you when it catches you?

I want to ask you a million questions about the creature, but I feel like that is against the spirit of the film. But I'll ask one. It's the one that EVERYONE brings up that I talk to the film about. What about crossing the ocean? I read in an interview that you said that wouldn't matter, but I'm wondering what it would do. Would it just cross the ocean floor? Swim? Hike a ride on a boat? Go into Jesus mode and walk on water?

Also, I read about how this movie stemmed from a childhood nightmare. If you were in this actual situation, how do you think you would react? What would be your strategy? Would you ever live life normally again, or suffer a mental breakdown like Jay did?

And you probably won't want to answer this to keep it scary, but...what DOES it do to you when it catches you?
